Summary/Abstract: Talent management has gained more and more attention in recent years; however, current research focuses mainly on developing concepts, constructions and definitions. Despite numerous studies, talent management has not been the subject of extensive research in reference to different types of organizations. In healthcare organizations, the demand for highly qualified employees, who can be considered as talents, is emphasized. Employees with exceptional abilities are a valuable, rare and sought after resource. Until now, studies on talent management in healthcare organizations are rare, and the need for such research is self-evident. Difficult economic conditions and strong employment trends are a serious challenge for talent management in healthcare organizations. Specialists in the field of talent management in healthcare have to constantly pursue three strategic goals: cost reduction, improvement of patient satisfaction and improvement of patient safety. The purpose of this article is to assess the current state of talent management in healthcare organizations and the steps that can be taken to move closer to the high impact talent management function. The methodology was based on the analysis of the literature on the subject concerning public healthcare organizations in the world and own research. Effective talent management can help health care organizations save time, money and reduce inefficiencies.
